Years back I worked the construction of a several high rise building downtown Atlanta. The city helped with the deliveries as they wanted the construction to proceed easily. Someone should tell the contractor that poor planning on his part does not make an emergency on your part.
Another great video It amazes me when people order things and don't think that u need a place to unload or deliver!!! When we had a kitchen deliver at home we made loads of space in r garage and moved both cars off drive so they could get as close as possible........even made them a drink when they got here!!
this is kind of why you go with the dedicated drywall supply companies they have trucks with booms that pick the drywall up and set it where ever you want it from the ground to slipping it in through a window or a slot cut in the wall
I suspect the guy kind of had an inkling that he might be needed to direct traffic. I suspect this same kind of guy has also been stuck in a portable toilet before because he failed to check for TP before committing to the dump.
Seems to me that they should of contracted involving a permit of sorts to have a traffic cop to control traffic. They expect some kind of telekinesis or drone to unload everyone lol.
Why can I not stop watching these videos? Good to see people helping out in these instances. Interesting to see all the crap you have to put up with from some of these customers too, on something that can't be more blunt. You're a good man and hard worker, always putting your all into it, even for those that really don't deserve it. Very interesting.
Strobes would help...orange cones..?..maybe one of those "slow down" on one side..."stop" on the other side sign.?..whatever it takes for a person not to get hurt or killed...I kinda do what you do...but on the freeways..
Hey bud, I like your content. It's great to see a guy that knows what he can and can't do within the limits of his occupation, and stands his ground on it too.
I'm officially hooked on these videos. Love seeing the customer's reactions, especially the Karens and Darrens. These videos are also so much better than watching people work at Subway.
This job reminds me of a job I did last year 300 sheets of sheet rock got dropped on the city sidewalk for me and a buddy to bring into the house. Funny stuff
Started beer delivery a year ago. Not the same job but similar enough. You handled that delivery very well in my book, it's nice to see how other hard workers do it. People underestimate the skills and fluid intelligence you need to do these kinds of jobs.
Opposite end of the day, for us. Shutting it down at the end of a loooong Saturday. All the best from Thailand. Love your work. Stay safe and stay sane.
For our company. Drywall spacers are what is needed! The price of pallets now days are unreal with scammers. The DCS need them back but most haulers want a pallet for delivery. Nope.
I had to do this in NYC a few times it hectic as hell. One particular time I remember unloading on Main st in Flushing Queens. It was such a nightmare.
Lol OSHA, when they showed up on site the boss would give a yell and we would wrap that day up then and there. The only sunny summer days off a roofer would get.
thats sad that you had to tell him i mean it should be common sense to say yell "hey box truck coming through!" love that you told him "i get squished you get no delivery" lol he probably thought well its already here i work construction i could always use your equipment to unload it and say sorry and thank you after lol
I wish more people cared about being good at their trade like you do. I like watching you drive the lift more than the customer related content sometimes. Ha.
Got to love the last minute stop guy, that almost blocks you in while you're waiting to deliver the last bunk, and then just sit there oblivious drinking his water
I do food service delivery and that is EXACTLY where I park my trailer to make my deliveries. They got one lane to get around, granted you need to use the MOFFETT. Be safe out there.
You think that's stressful obviously with no boom lift no sheetrock cart no crane that means a bunch of guys have to carry them sheets stalking and buildings like that and some of the hardest work any person will ever have to do definitely cannot have anybody weak bodied or weak minded it's definitely hard work once you start handling those sheets by hand
@@michaeltoner1993 how many sheets have you stocked and in what types of buildings the only jobs I know so far that are even harder than running sheetrock up stairwells or the dense board used to wrap elevator shafts might be landscape construction rolling boulders under retainer walls or perhaps dropping rebar on a square mile deck at the docks and I'm not talking a little boat docks I'm talking cargo Port of entry I've done all this work so please list some of the jobs you think might be harder than these I've even work slash piles on the sides of mountains after logging has been done and that still wasn't as hard as the three jobs above I mentioned
@@SaffordDelivery dude the videos are sick im from the uk and dudes got talent at keeping everyone watching and waiting for the next video my kids and i love the videos keep up the great work and make dudes like him employee of the month every month
Where I live (Adelaide, South Australia) we have people called paddle-poppers. A delivery like that wouldn't be allowed to occur in situation like that one without a paddle poppers. (Paddle Popper = People who hold up go/stop signs) OHAS doesn't even come into it.
I also do home depot deliveries via tractor-trailer and Moffett equipment and i have never encountered the level of hostile customers than you have in your runs.
I drive forklift on a masonry crew and it can be brutal, besides the physical aspect, there’s been times I’ve had to drive long distances into oncoming traffic in major cities without a lane being closed or having anyone to stop traffic or spot.
1. I would suggest not waving traffic through unless you're the designated one doing it. At least where I live, if you wave someone through and they get into an accident, you're liable for it. 2. What about some water soluble spray paint to highlight obstacles? might not just help you but others too.
on the real half the time at a construction site if the important people arent there then hard hats are hardly worn safety glasses are hardly worn and vests are hardly worn but not all sites really require it but OSHA is real strict so violations get thrown out like candy lol
Yo! It is so much fun watching someone who is good at what they do! You make it look effortless when it looks near impossible. Stay safe and thanks for the amazing videos!
If you think this clown is good at what he does then you do not have a clue about trucking ! This is one of the worst drivers I have seen ! Must have been trained by Swift
It reminds me of a time when I and a student driver had to deliver in San Jose California at a theater they were building in downtown. The contractors wanted me to back down into a hole they dug to unload the product. I looked at the situation and told them a flat no way. My landing gears would snap off. So I park on the street and they put cones around my truck. We got there at 0600-and left at 1830
Just Subscribed! I love how you do things. Hey so I was just looking at it yesterday have you heard of the guardian angel device? I was looking at it yesterday It's a little BRIGHT 360° light that has a magnet it goes on your shoulder and is for safety or you could even throw it on the the fork lift as it's magnetic even in the daytime I'm sure it helps as it's very bright but low light or dark it's PERFECT I worry about you guys on these roadside deliveries ppl are crazy out there be safe and definitely look up that product it has a bunch of color combinations I think a amber/white one is perfect for roadside deliveries / tow truck drivers check it out and be safe!
"If I get squished, you get no delivery" Love it
I'm impressed that needed to be said
I work at a Lowe's and I am truly amazed at how you handled this delivery and how well you operate. Props to you 👌 👍
❤️❤️💪🏾💪🏾

I wish their was more people like you!
Common sense ain't so common 😂
I can just bet after the delivery was made they wanted to have the dumpster emptied now that it's blocked in
You're the kind of people I enjoined delivering things to when I worked retail and delivered everything from appliances to treadmills to garden sheds
one busy street , holey cow , every car in a 3 mile radius must have to go down that street lol.
😆😅🤣😂
I could never do your job ! The narrow spaces, the PEOPLE !!🙄 You keep your cool, problem solve as you go, sir, you are a GOAT !! 😍
this is kind of why you go with the dedicated drywall supply companies they have trucks with booms that pick the drywall up and set it where ever you want it from the ground to slipping it in through a window or a slot cut in the wall
I would think the trucks with the knuckle boom cranes be a better choice then these Flatbeds with the moffetts
Yeah, while standing in the middle of a busy street, a reflective vest might save your life. OSHA is good.
I suspect the guy kind of had an inkling that he might be needed to direct traffic. I suspect this same kind of guy has also been stuck in a portable toilet before because he failed to check for TP before committing to the dump.
Union job , 2 holding the gate while the contractor directs traffic , perfect beans to me.
They're definitely union bro they cheap as heck
Seems to me that they should of contracted involving a permit of sorts to have a traffic cop to control traffic. They expect some kind of telekinesis or drone to unload everyone lol.
😆😅🤣😂
Should have not should of.
Looks to me like they would just hire a real trucker to deliver !
I bet they got lots of other deliveries that the driver had no issue
Either have law enforcement to direct traffic or have a traffic management company set up cones to mark at safety zone to unload in
"The forklift wizard, becomes part of the machine!" You and Moffet become one! You're fun to watch!
Loved the "cranking the straps " music 🎶 they should have just roped off the whole street! Very proud of you, you're such a pro!
Lol days off. What’s a Day off? Ha. Great video once again my friend. GOOD JOB
My day is now 5:30am North Dakota. Thanks for sharing and letting me ride along. Just awesome. Drive safe
Go to bed
What I do when I'm not at work: watch other people work on UA-cam
🤣🤣❤️❤️
I love hard work… I can watch it all day.
Or while at work myself

If it weren't for the more stressful jobs, you wouldn't be able to appreciate the cake ones lol. Nice work, homie.
Well Mike would be a super duper master baker
@@magicizaproblem lol. I like it. I like what you did there .

Watching this video brings back so many good (and bad) memories of delivering in busy city centres.
Smooth as glass. Great job as always.😎
Big respect for your skills😊
I couldn’t imagine all the BS you have to deal with props to you brother stay safe 🤘
For a minute there you made it feel like I was behind the wheel, I'm getting good at this. Good job!
I'm officially hooked on these videos. Love seeing the customer's reactions, especially the Karens and Darrens. These videos are also so much better than watching people work at Subway.
Well yeah because the most interesting thing that happens at Subway is they might give you light mayonnaise instead of regular mayonnaise
@@SaffordDelivery LMFAO! So true.
This job reminds me of a job I did last year 300 sheets of sheet rock got dropped on the city sidewalk for me and a buddy to bring into the house. Funny stuff
Great to see a skilled professional doing his job so good & taking no crap

Never order drywalle from a Home Depot or lowes! A wallboard supply company is what we do! They load the job for you always!
Just wanted to say Thanks you!! I really enjoy your videos! Stay safe my brother 🙏🏽💪🏽
Thank you! Will do!
Love how calm you are all the time. Good work
Opposite end of the day, for us. Shutting it down at the end of a loooong Saturday. All the best from Thailand.

You got the tools and the talent. smooth as butter.
🌄💞💞
He should have gave you a tip !!! that was stressful but you handled it like a BOSS.
Good one. I would have been stressed out in those tight areas.
Nice job getting it done ! Never seen Sheetrock stored on a pallet 😅
Precision delivery, in spite of parked cars, traffic, a bucket and not much room to maneuver! Spot On!! That is why they pay you the big bucks.
INSANE Delivery . Parked Cars , No traffic control . Blocking dumpsters . Not this kid .
For our company. Drywall spacers are what is needed! The price of pallets now days are unreal with scammers. The DCS need them back but most haulers want a pallet for delivery. Nope.
Love your videos that was a busy delivery 📦 🚚 but you nailed it , from brian in Ireland 🇮🇪

i delivered sheetrock and shingles for 18 years and didn't complain this much! if i was the contractor i would have let you unstrap and the said BYE!
I wish more people cared about being good at their trade like you do. I like watching you drive the lift more than the customer related content sometimes. Ha.

Deliveries in big cities are challenging, cops and traffic and don't know how the unloading will go. Smooth delivery on that though, good job!
"If I get squashed, you get no delivery" see the way I think of it is. you get squashed we get no more content 🤣 glad you weren't squashed.
🚚💨 🫓
I'm a trucker for Estes and I find it funny that I watch you work while I'm at work... I should get double pay🤣
Bring your safety vest 🤣🤣💪🏾💪🏾
You gotta tilt those forks while your moving them into the pallet for a smoother grab. Rookie forklift operator I can see 😂😂
Thanks for the video 👍
Who the F buys 4 full hacks of 8’ drywall from Home Depot? (Love your videos man, you run the lift like a beast).
13:27 Love the workers looking at the double stack, like "dang we got to load all that in from up there"
Great job Mike Thanks for sharing 👍 👏
Hats off to you brother! You make stressful situations look easy.

@@wouldntyouliketoknow3811 pretty short sheets, not too hard with the right technique. far more physically demanding jobs out there..

I do the same thing for a living. I like To watch the different scenarios that you encounter and learn from them. Great channel
Thanks
Bravo! Greetings from Slovenia!

People, get your delivery from a supplier not a box store....
Wow that was high stress to watch! Great work!
Just subscribed...I am retired and watching these videos are very enjoyable!
❤️❤️💪🏾💪🏾
New subscriber here, I’m a Moffett guy as well (we are definitely our own breed of trucker lol).
Love the videos!
❤️❤️💪🏾💪🏾
Not the worst scenaro~~ Had deliveries with concrete spanndecks that need a heavy crane to unload from by the road side like in this video.
No you didn’t
Are you a sorcerer? Your Moffett maneuvering skills are no joke.
🖤🖤
I also do home depot deliveries via tractor-trailer and Moffett equipment and i have never encountered the level of hostile customers than you have in your runs.
Must be the area
I drive forklift on a masonry crew and it can be brutal, besides the physical aspect, there’s been times I’ve had to drive long distances into oncoming traffic in major cities without a lane being closed or having anyone to stop traffic or spot.
those straps are driving me nuts even at high speed.
Nice, quick, and efficient....

I appreciate skilled trades.

It was a union group and they were literally milking the clock on the unloading
Man, you make it look easy, I would have gone home. You are always thinking of the next restaurant haha.
🍜
They have a long way to walk with all those sheets , up those stairs and around the corner. behind the red dumpster 😂
That is some tight turning especially near those cars.
The joys of working in the town

There's a few similar LED style lights to the guardian angel, in fact there are many 'night safety vests' with inbuilt strobe LEDs in them these days
Some many chances to damage property in this video, and you avoided them all. Company must be happy to have a guy like you.
